Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its beast-mode performance and strong sillage, though appreciated by many, make it less suitable for formal or office settings where subtlety is key. Conversely, its unique profile and enthusiastic compliments from reviewers suggest it's a solid choice for casual outings and dates, even adaptable for sport due to its bold freshness.

About

Aoud Lemon Mint opens with a sharp, zesty burst of lemon and a surprising, almost medicinal kick from coriander and pepper. It quickly transitions into a creamy, nutty heart of almond, subtly underscored by a non-animalic oud. As it settles, a warm, soft base of vanilla, amber, musk, vetiver, and a whisper of leather emerges, softening the initial brightness into a sophisticated, slightly powdery finish.
